Oh, no! The horrors! A non-black dared to use the n-word! How many times has Stroman said whitey or cracker and no one so much as raised an eyebrow much less a fist?

Partner, LMAO and a great post.

“’Fair’ is a place you go to ride ponies and eat cotton candy”

Then you don't mind the proposed prohibition against you wearing the (racist-to-some) MAGA hat in public.

True or false?

Equal treatment under the law is one thing.

Losing your job or getting your ass kicked for calling someone a racial epithet has nothing to do with the first amendment.

Rap is for all the uneducated morons in this world.

The thing is, go to any rap concert, and notice the makeup of the crowd, it's mostly white people.

I'm dealing with this with my daughter, she loves the stuff. I just don't get it.

How many black folk can say “My rental properties” like I can :-)

Miles Davis said that he actually made more money on his rental properties than he did from "Kind of Blue" back in the early 60s.

Please cite such.

there’s a difference between opposing the GOVERNMENT banning expression (which of course I’m opposed to) and having zero sympathy for someone getting fired and/or beat up because their parents didn’t raise them with enough brains or class (wanting to use a racial epithet and/or being upset because you can’t for fear of repercussions is a perfect example of such).

Government should never be able to regulate speech (with the old common law exceptions of defamation and incitement of course); if for some reason of mental deficiency and/or poor breeding someone feels they need to use the N-word, well, they should not be prevented from doing so, but they shouldn’t bitch if the get fired of they find someone wanting to discuss it in the parking lot or boxing ring.

There’s all kinds of things many of us could say that would result in losing a job and/or some teeth; most of us had parents who raised us well enough that we don’t even want to say such.

The ‘black on black violence’ is not the slightest concern of mine. Of course anyone in a crappy, dysfunctional sub-culture is going to look to anything outside that culture to blame, explain their failures, or try to hustle for more money. Red herring; whatever blacks do to blacks or say about blacks has nothing to do with my life or my opinions about anything being wise or stupid.

It’s not that ‘they are putting energy into going after people who say a word’ that cracks me up (although it does, it does; I totally get they hypocrisy of the language of {c}rap); it’s the piteous whining of white guys who are frustrated that they can’t use certain words; it’s funny. Anyone who was raised right simply wouldn’t give a damn; I don’t CARE if it’s legal or not to sleep with another man, because I simply have no desire to, same thing with using a racial epithet, and the only reason I’d complain about either prohibition would be if I wanted to.

without pay while we work through this simulation with all appropriate parties,” NASCAR said in a statement.

The most important thing for NUTSCAR is to get the Biggest Fine in the History of Motorsports. Then they will have to split it up among the fraudulent france/kennedy clans by donating to the proper “charities” and Wash it a few times. Once that’s complete the Outstanding Bill(s) for brainless france and his Rehab, Fines from the Hamptons Traffic Stop, the proper judicial hands being greased as promised, the Hamptons Police Pension Fund & Officers Ski Château and Jackboot Polishing Station.

“Please cite such.”

There are many recently reported cases of people violating cultural boundaries and being beaten by the sons and daughters of parents who trained them to enforce orthodoxy with violence.

Lol! I assume you know I’m Polish on my mother’s side. NO ONE is suggesting that slurs are acceptable. It’s the Leftards double standards that deserve rebuke. While they’re busy making “pets” out of minority groups they feel perfectly free to trash whites constantly. It’s a form of fascism in my opinion.

Never said anything about the first amendment. Having different firing offenses by race is unequal treatment under the law.

OK,

(well, not OK)

I was referring, specifically, to legislation.

Yeah, I agree that ANYONE physically assaulting another person because of what they wear or otherwise express their political view should be severely beaten, disenfranchised, and deported.

No, it’s a double standard. If a group of people find a specific word so injurious, they should stop using it themselves. You don’t hear women running around calling each other “c**ts” for good reason.

That is pure bull.

I've heard many women refer to other women as fat assed cu68s.

When I owned a bar, {this was 40 years ago and times have changed} the things that women said would shame a sailor.

“In MLB, Strohman is considered a midget. He is only 5’7”, 175 pounds. All hat and no cattle.”

Kyle Larson is listed at 5’6” and 135. Maybe they could duel with paintball pistols.

Interesting, and thought provoking point.

That’s in a bar, not in numerous songs played on the radio daily.
